This song is about this guy thinking that everyone is going crazy because they aren't thinking about what really matters in life. He says that people are to worried about how they look and their jobs and what they think is important when it really is things that don't matter. He talks about how parents are changed and they argue all the time and it effects kids. He also talks about how the rich people don't care about anything but themselves so they go out and buy expensive things that they don't need while there are kids who don't even have anything like food, water, clothes, shelter and other necessities.
I think the song writer or singer is trying to send out the message not to be materialistic and you should care about the basics and help others who need help. The part i think of it "Rich guys driving big SUVs While kids are starving in the streets" and he is showing the differences between the poor and rich. People are so greedy and they need to share. So he is telling people it is wrong to just drive by in your fancy car while there are kids dying in the street that you could have helped but you went out and got a big car that is using tons of gas and is harming our earth.
Another message I think he is trying to get across to people is they need to see what real matters in life. Life isn't about the the things you have and how you look. In the song he says "Diet pills,surgery" and he is saying how people are trying so hard to be that perfect person and no one is perfect so they are going after nothing. So he is trying to say focus on what really matters and not what you look like. Focus on how you feel about the things your have done so help people who need help and you will feel good about your self.
There is repetition "Is everybody going crazy? Is everybody going crazy?", there is another use of repetition "You'll see that something, something is wrong", a metaphor is "Young girls dying to be on TV", A simile is "Parents act like enemies Making kids feel like it's World War III",There is a Rhyme here "No one cares No one likes to share I guess life's unfair", Personification is used here because the magazine doesn't talk."Photo-shopped pictures in magazines Telling them how they should be",
Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look, I see
Young girls dying to be on TV
They won't stop till they've reached their dreams
Diet pills,surgery
Photoshopped pictures in magazines
Telling them how they should be
It doesn't make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on?
Tell me what's going on?
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong
I guess things are not how they used to be
There's no more normal families
Parents act like enemies
Making kids feel like it's World War III
No one cares, no one's there
I guess we're all just too dang busy
And money's our first priority
It doesn't make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on?
Tell me what's going on?
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Is everybody going crazy?
Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Rich guys driving big SUVs
While kids are starving in the streets
No one cares
No one likes to share
I guess life's unfair
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on?
Tell me what's going on?
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something, something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Can anybody tell me what's going on?
Tell me what's going on?
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong
